Student sport

Whether you're looking to join a team, take part in recreational sport, or improve your fitness, there's something for you!

Sport clubs

Our sport teams are always present at the freshers fayre during Welcome Week and this is the best way to get to know what's on offer. But if you missed them during Welcome, or if you're a current student and want to get involved, take a look at the many sport clubs at Solent. Some teams represent the University regionally and nationally in BUCS, but there something for every level and capability.

Active Campus

If social or recreational sport is more your thing, Active Campus is for you! It's non-competitive and all abilities are welcome. 

All equipment is provided at each session, so you just need to either book on the My Solent Sport app, or turn up and play.

How much is it?

Sessions are £2 to attend. Or you can purchase a monthly Active Campus membership for £5 a month. So, if you're thinking of attending more than two sessions a month, a monthly membership is highly cost effective!

Take a look at the timetable below and sign up!
